Back in February, Langley businessman Hiten Gupta was dancing to celebrate Family Day with his daughter when his outstretched right hand made accidental contact with a sharp metal object.

It was a deep gash that required a trip to the Langley Memorial Hospital ER and seven stitches to close.

On Sunday, March 29th, Gupta, owner of Pizza Mantra, returned to the ER to say thank you by delivering 112 gourmet pizzas of every type, ranging from Mantra’s signature butter chicken pizza, to Hawaiian, veggie and classic pepperoni recipes.

He also brought 10 special-recipe “Keto-Zaa bowl” meals for people on keto diets.

It was more pizzas than the staff’s first choice of transport, a wheelchair, could accommodate, so a larger food trolley was rustled up and stacked high.

Gupta called it a “small token of appreciation’ for the LMH workers in the battle against COVID-19.

He also presented the staff with some hand-made thank-yous from his two children and some of their friends, along with some coupons.
